A facilitator skilled in interpretive planning works with park staff, partners, and outside consultants to prepare a plan that is consistent with other current planning documents. Part 1 of the LRIP establishes criteria against which existing and proposed personal services and media can be measured. It identifies themes, audiences, audience experiences, and issues. Part 2 describes the mix of services and facilities that are necessary to achieve management goals and interpretive mission. It includes implementation charts that plot a course of action, assign responsibilities, and offer a schedule of activity. When appropriate, Appendices provide more detailed discussions of specific topics. The completed LRIP forms a critical part of the more inclusive Comprehensive Interpretive Plan (CIP).

This Executive Summary lists the key findings of the 2018 Virginia State Parks economic impact analyses: ➢ In 2018, visitors to Virginia’s State Parks spent an estimated $249.1M in the Commonwealth. Approximately 46% [$113.7M] of this spending was by out-of-state visitors. ➢ The total economic activity stimulated by Virginia State Parks during 2018 was approximately $338.7M. ➢ The total economic impact of Virginia State Parks during 2018 was approximately $267.1M. Economic impact is a measure of “fresh money” infused into the state’s economy that likely would have not been generated in the absence of the park system. ➢ At the individual park level, economic impacts range from $961K to $31.3M (not including parks under development). ➢ In 2018, for every $1 of general tax revenue provided to state parks, $14.06, on average, was generated in fresh money that would not be there if not for the operation of Virginia State Parks.

    D. R. Horne & Company THEODORE ROOSEVELT PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY PROJECT BRIEF Updated April 2020 Prepared for: Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library Foundation Prepared by: D. R. Horne & Company Table of Contents I. Introduction 3 II. Purpose of Project 6 III. Operational Goals of Foundation 11 IV. Principal Elements of Project 15 V. Attributes of Design 21 2 I. Introduction Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library: Project Brief Introduction __________________________________________________________ Project Summary The Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library Foundation (“TRPLF”) was formed with the purpose of creating a Presidential Library and Museum for one of the most intriguing national figures in our nation’s history. The Badlands is a striking landscape that spoke to Roosevelt when he first visited in September 1883 to hunt buffalo. He returned not long after, seeking refuge following the deaths of his wife, Alice, and his mother, Mittie, on the same day, February 14, 1884. It was in the Badlands that Roosevelt grieved and healed as he pursued the “strenuous life,” transforming himself from a frail and underweight city dweller into a larger-than-life character, as he is popularly remembered today. TR himself credited his time in the Badlands as one of the foundational experiences of his life, declaring “I have always said I would not have been President had it not been for my experience in North Dakota” and “It was here that the romance of my life began.” Medora has been chosen as the ideal location within the state to develop the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum (“the Library”) due to the strong association with TR. The main entrance to the National Park, which bears his name (“TRNP”), is located in Medora, providing visitors with direct access to the unique landscape of the Badlands, including his ranch.
